2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · YP67 DYA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 March 2026 at 111,450 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable in terms of passing the test, though the history reveals a consistent pattern of immediate failure followed by rectification. In both 2025 and 2026, the vehicle failed the initial test only to pass days later upon retest. This suggests that the previous owner addressed necessary repairs only when prompted by a test failure, rather than performing preventative maintenance on components that flagged. At 111,450 miles over nine years, this Ford Transit has averaged approximately 12,383 miles per year. This usage is consistent with a commercial vehicle and indicates regular operation which keeps the drivetrain and suspension active. The mileage data shows steady accumulation, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between March 2024 and March 2025, and another 8,000 miles between March 2025 and March 2026. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally helps prevent degradation of rubber components and brake seizing. While the recent records show no active defects, the high mileage on a Transit necessitates a thorough physical inspection of heavy-duty wear items. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing, as these frequently fail on older commercial vans. Given the vehicle's age, checking the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly around mounting points and the underside, is essential. Additionally, verify the brake discs for uneven wear and check the calipers to ensure the recent MOT passes have not masked underlying mechanical issues in the braking system.
